Strong performance in Europe and the US helped offset weaker sales in China and other emerging markets. Sales in China contracted 32% to about 19,835 units during the second quarter, with the contribution of China to the segment’s quarterly retail sales down from 27% the last year to 18%.

Jaguar Land Rover wholesales (excluding from China JV) and retails (including from China JV) for the quarter were 111,160 units and 110,200 units, respectively.

Tata Motors said that its medium and heavy commercial vehicle (M&HCV) segment continued to grow at a robust rate of 35.3 % year-on-year.
